Yes, and it also helps to see if the port was imported into the right
category. (sometimes it's pretty hard to determine.)

And, I started wondering if comms is the right category for this
software. Yes, it is related to communications, but as I look at
other stuff in the comms category, I somehow feel that this port
belongs in some other category. Something called plor which deals
with soup and qwk packets is in the news category (I don't know why
news, though).
Well, I don't know, comms might be the correct one. Maybe Satoshi
should decide.
